The Eagles are in London to play the Jacksonville Jaguars at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this Sunday morning with Kickoff at 9:30 am.  The Locker Room with Billy Schweim and The Sports Bash with Mike Gill are teaming up to Broadcast Live from Maynards in Margate for our Eagles pregame show.  It’s Breakfast with the Birds at Maynards!!

The Eagles head to London with a new-look offensive line. After the sudden retirement of All-Pro Right Tackle Lane Johnson, and the trade of former starting Center Cam Jurgens to the Baltimore Ravens, the Eagles have their work cut out for them on Sunday. Playing overseas is just one obstacle. Can the Eagles' offensive line protect Jalen Hurts?

The Birds are also dealing with numerous injuries. Six Eagles did not participate in practice on Thursday, and another five were limited at practice. The Jags are 3-1 and in first place in the AFC South in the early going.  Jacksonville has the best turnover ratio in the NFL with a + 6. Come out and join us at Maynards in Margate for our Breakfast with the Birds Tailgate party. We will be giving away tickets to the Eagles vs Cowboys game. 

The Flyers lost another game on Thursday night to the Ottawa Senators 2-1. The Flyers schedule doesn’t get any easier, playing the Bruins in Boston on Saturday Afternoon and then return home to host the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday night. 

The Sixers Fab Five played together for the first time in a preseason game against the Nets in Brooklyn.  Newly acquired Jaylen Brown led all scorers with 18 points. We will cover all the hot topics this weekend in The Locker Room with Billy Schweim. 

On Saturday’s show, Producer Alex Berardis and Erim Ewing join me in the studio. We will get things going and talk Flyers hockey in the “Coaches Corner” with the Chief Craig Berube. "The Chief" will give us his take on the Flyers. The Eagles and Sixers will dominate the conversation. In Hour Two, it’s time for “Heard it from Hurd” with former NFL strength & Conditioning coach Jeff Hurd brought to you by the Vasser pool service.  Next it’s our “High School Athletes in the Spotlight” with Fran Mclaughlin brought to you by the Philly Pretzel Factory of EHT. 

On Sunday we will be broadcasting Live from Maynard’s in Margate for our Breakfast with the Birds tailgate party. The Locker Room and the Sports Bash team up for our Eagles pregame show. We will be broadcasting Live from 7am to 8:30am. Join me, Mike Gill, former Kansas City Chiefs WR Dave Klemic and Pete G as we get you ready for the Birds in London. We’ll get the “Keys to the Game” with Fox 29 News Sports director Scott Grayson brought to you by Blitz’s Market of Ocean City. In Hour Two, my “Fantasy Football Guru” Brian Hartley checks in brought to you by Charlies Bar. The Guru will give us his picks for Week Five in the NFL.

All that and more this weekend in The Locker Room with Billy Schweim, every Saturday and Sunday morning on 97.3 FM ESPN Radio South Jersey.
